Oklahoma City Thunder Tickets Information

The Oklahoma City Thunder joined the NBA as an expansion team in the 1967-68 season as the Seattle Supersonics. The Sonics franchise would have a turbulent start, failing to make the playoffs in each of the franchise’s first seven seasons. By the end of the 1970s the Sonics had found success. The team reached the NBA finals in 1977-78, but fell to the Washington Bullets. The following season Seattle would win its only championship in franchise history, knocking off those same Bullets. The Sonics were led on the court by Gus Williams, Dennis Johnson and Jack Sikma, and off it by head coach Lenny Wilkins. After an up and down decade, the Sonics returned to prominence in the 1990s. Behind the play of Gary Payton and Shawn Kemp Seattle rattled off six straight seasons with 55-plus wins, but was never able to capture a second title. After struggling through most of the 2000s, the Sonics completely rebuilt. In addition to moving to Oklahoma City, the Thunder traded away superstar Ray Allen and drafted future stars Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, James Harden and Serge Ibaka. The Thunder have been atop the Western Conference for much of the team’s time in Oklahoma City. Score with TicketCity - the place to go for OKC Thunder basketball tickets.

2015 Thunder Season Preview

The Oklahoma City Thunder entered the 2013-14 NBA Season with championship expectations. The core of Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and Serge Ibaka were back and the Thunder looked to stand out in a packed NBA Western Conference. Kevin Durant had probably his best season of his career, finishing as league MVP, but injuries to Russell Westbrook in the regular season and Serge Ibaka in the playoffs derailed Oklahoma City’s title chances.

The Oklahoma City Thunder come into the 2014-15 NBA season once again with NBA championship aspirations. The core of the Thunder’s team remains exactly the same for 2014. Kevin Durant is still one of the biggest stars in the game and Russell Westbrook looks to bounce back in 2014. The key addition for the Oklahoma City Thunder in the offseason was rookie center Mitch McGary, who looks to help Kendrick Perkins and Ibaka on the inside. The Thunder have always been able to score points, if they can take the next step on the defensive side of the court, they have a great shot at making it back to the Western Conference Finals.
